With a budget of INR 1.5 Lacs via management/private quota might be difficult. I am suggesting you few affordable college options for BPT-

• Banarsidas Chandiwala Institute of Physiotherapy (New Delhi)
• Jamia Millia Islamia (New Delhi)
• Institute of Medical Sciences, BHU (Varanasi)
• State University Affiliated Colleges (UP/Haryana/Rajasthan)

Yes, there is only 1 government Physiotherapy college in Coimbatore. Check the table below for the top college with their tuition fees.

After BPT, students can specialise in areas like orthopaedics, neurology, sports physiotherapy, and paediatric physiotherapy. These specialisations usually require pursuing an MPT (Master's) degree later. Specialised physiotherapists often earn better packages compared to general practitioners. 

Salaries after BPT in Coimbatore range from around INR 1 LPA to INR 9.08 LPA. This depends heavily on the college, internship quality, and specialisation chosen later. Many physiotherapists also build income through private clinics over time. Starting salaries in hospitals are usually on the lower side initially. Long-term earning potential improves a lot with specialisation and experience.

Both fields have good demand, but they lead to very different career paths. BPT focuses on rehabilitation and physical therapy, while nursing is more clinical patient care. Physiotherapy offers strong scope for private practice and sports medicine roles. Nursing has more government job opportunities and faster hiring cycles. Choose based on your personal interest, since both are equally respectable fields.
